Couple profiles on Feeld have unique photo challenges. You need to represent two people, show your dynamic, and attract matches who want both of you.

Here's how to get your couple photos right.


The Core Challenge

Representing Two People

You need to show:

  • Both individuals clearly
  • The dynamic between you
  • Each person as attractive/interesting
  • That both are invested
  • Why someone would want to meet you both

What Matches Look For

Third parties want to know:

  • What both of you look like
  • That both are genuinely interested
  • The vibe of your relationship
  • If they'd be attracted to both
  • That they won't be a prop

Essential Photo Types for Couples

1. Clear Photo of Each Individual

For each person:

  • Solo photo or clearly individual
  • Face visible and clear
  • Representative of their appearance
  • Equal quality for both partners

Why this matters:

  • People need to see who you each are
  • Avoids "bait and switch" feeling
  • Shows both are real individuals
  • Lets people evaluate attraction to each

2. Photo Together

At least one photo showing:

  • Both of you together
  • Your dynamic visible
  • Both looking happy/engaged
  • Chemistry between you

This establishes:

  • You're actually a couple
  • How you interact
  • Your relationship energy
  • What being with both of you might feel like

3. Activity/Interest Photos

Show what you're about:

  • Hobbies you share
  • How you spend time
  • Your lifestyle
  • What doing things with you looks like

Common Couple Photo Mistakes

Only Couple Photos, No Individuals

The problem:

  • Hard to see each person clearly
  • Can't evaluate individuals
  • Feels like hiding something
  • One person always partially obscured

The fix:

  • Include clear individual photos
  • Each person should be clearly visible
  • Balance couple and solo shots

Unequal Photo Quality

The problem:

  • One partner has great photos
  • Other partner has poor photos
  • Signals who's "running" the profile
  • Creates attraction imbalance

The fix:

  • Equal quality for both
  • Same effort for both people
  • If one has no good photos, take new ones together

One Partner Looks Reluctant

The problem:

  • One person seems less enthusiastic
  • Forced smile or closed body language
  • Obvious who wanted this more
  • Red flag for potential matches

The fix:

  • Only use photos where both look happy
  • If one partner isn't into it, that's a conversation to have
  • Genuine enthusiasm matters

Wedding/Formal Photos Only

The problem:

  • See you dressed up, not in real life
  • May be old
  • Doesn't show everyday you
  • Too stiff and formal

The fix:

  • Include casual photos
  • Show everyday versions of yourselves
  • Variety of contexts

Photo Order for Couples

First Photo Strategy

Lead with:

  • Photo showing both of you
  • Or photo of the partner who typically gets more interest
  • Clear and attractive
  • Hooks attention

Consider:

  • If seeking women, leading with female partner can help
  • If seeking men, consider leading with couple shot
  • Test different approaches

Strategic Sequence

Good order:

  1. Couple photo or strategic lead
  2. Individual of partner A
  3. Individual of partner B
  4. Activity/lifestyle photo
  5. Additional couple or individual shots

Balance Throughout

Ensure:

  • Both partners appear roughly equally
  • Neither overshadowed
  • Variety maintained
  • Ends on strong note

Showing Your Dynamic

Genuine Affection

Photos that show:

  • Real affection between you
  • Comfort with each other
  • Happiness in your relationship
  • Connection that's inviting

Sexy But Not Explicit

If appropriate:

  • Tasteful photos that show chemistry
  • Not violating platform guidelines
  • Sexy energy without explicit content
  • Save truly explicit for private photos

Individuality Within Couplehood

Important to show:

  • You're two complete people
  • Not just "couple"
  • Each has personality
  • Someone would enjoy each of you individually

For Different Goals

If Seeking Women/Femmes

Photo considerations:

  • Women often swipe on couple profiles cautiously
  • Show the woman partner clearly
  • Non-threatening, friendly energy
  • Photos that don't scream "unicorn hunters"
  • Both partners look welcoming

If Seeking Men

Photo considerations:

  • Men often respond to attractiveness first
  • Show what makes you both appealing
  • Clear photos of both
  • Approachable energy

If Seeking Other Couples

Photo considerations:

  • Show your dynamic clearly
  • Compatibility signals
  • What hanging out with both of you would be like
  • Similar energy to couples you'd want to meet

Private Photos for Couples

What to Put in Private Photos

Consider:

  • Racier content that doesn't fit main profile
  • More revealing (within guidelines)
  • Chemistry and intimacy
  • Still representing both of you

Who Sees Them

Be strategic:

  • Unlock for genuine connections
  • Not too quickly
  • Both partners should be represented
  • Consider what this communicates

Taking New Couple Photos

DIY Approach

Easy options:

  • Timer/tripod shots together
  • Take photos of each other
  • Ask friends to snap some
  • Multiple locations for variety

What to Capture

Aim for:

  • Natural, candid moments
  • Good lighting
  • Both looking at camera (some shots)
  • Looking at each other (some shots)
  • Activities you enjoy

Professional Options

If investing:

  • Couples photoshoots
  • "Day in the life" style
  • Natural posing, not stiff
  • Get individual and couple shots

Red Flags to Avoid Projecting

Things That Scare Matches Away

Avoid signaling:

  • One partner dragging the other
  • Someone being "offered up"
  • Competitive couple dynamics
  • Desperation for a third
  • Treating the third as accessory

What Good Profiles Signal

Aim to communicate:

  • Two people who'd be fun to meet
  • Genuine mutual interest
  • Respect for potential matches
  • Healthy relationship foundation
  • Interest in connection, not just bodies

FAQ

What if one partner isn't photogenic? Practice, good lighting, and taking many photos helps. Everyone can have good photos with enough attempts.

Should we include photos with past thirds? Generally no—it's like including ex photos. Focus on the two of you.

How many photos should a couple profile have? 5-8 is good. Enough to show both individuals and the dynamic without overwhelming.
